Understanding broader spectrum helped me to take a shot to go for a senior role when I was still at the beginning of my career; though I ended up not having that promotion. I still feel really good about the journey at that time. I was able to score a meeting with a big client of ours, with the help of a senior sales engineer in our company, and help them connect dots from the field to the office. Strategical thinking is always an utopic characteristic of someone in a senior or managerial role but rarely happen to exists. Making difference by understanding local (your team, your local branch, your country etc.) finances which is such an important topic, would definitely help someone to get a promotion.

Some of the best advice I ever got on this subject was: Do NOT make yourself indispensable from your role. You can work hard, go above and beyond, and do an amazing job but if your management think you're irreplaceable, you won't be fired but you'll also never be promoted!
